How cool doing that with your Son. That will make for good times.

Very nice! So how was the drive??? Now you need to tell us your thoughts/feelings/review of the car... It is customary here at Renn

I drove my *new to me* 2004 GT3 from TN to UT this summer, and I was feeling quite beat up after that 22 hour drive... However, the huge smile on my face has yet to diminish!

Enjoy it!

Looks like you better be careful with that driveway approach angle...

Enjoy the car. For me, it has been one of the few experiences that keeps getting better. Just a fantastically engineered driver's car, that gets faster with time (driver dependent).

Go for the bucket seats in leather or cloth when you get the chance. It totally changes the experience from the drivers seat.

Cheers,

Where in Tenn did you buy your car?
I'm still envious about being so close to MMP. I've thought about that drive to SLC. I'm in Indiana so it would be about the same distance. I just don't know if this old beat-up body could take it.
